Who...huh? Me? What makes you think that? From somebody that's been there and done it, if you're going to moderate the league messageboard......You better have 'em screwed on tight. |

Gene-O, you know exactly what I am talking about.
My next question is: Will M&M still give consideration to the F.A.B. ?

The only reason I would continue on the FAB if it is to be, is my respect for  . He gets a bad rap in the indoor football world because he's passionate about his team and the league they play in. I don't always agree with him, but I respect what he has done, spearheaded when the league(s) wouldn't. The only reason Erie has indoor football is Joe. That being said,  |

Well, first, I congratulate for the FAB for taking a vote on something I felt was long overdue. Secondly, I think fans running a league message board results in two things: The fans no longer feel like fans, and the league tries to tip-toe around the idea of alienating them. What the league needs to realize, is sometimes getting bashed is the best way to STOP DOING WHAT YOU'RE DOING. Maybe some do it with more tact. But sweeping things under the rug when they get messy certainly is not. The AIFA message board will fall the way of the AIFL Haines board, the NIFL board, and the rest. Unless they're really open to getting attacked (see: CIFL), the official board will eventually become devoid of posters, and will eventually serve no purpose. So, with that, congrats AIFAFANS, it is a new day. Sykotyk P.S., the SimpleMe TV deal sucked.  |

Just wait till his bat phone is ringing off the hook with requests to delete that post, lock that thread, ban that member. I am not worried about things like that. |

The Bat Phone belongs to Joe. I think Dave is more of a Shoe Phone kinda guy.  |

Sooo, now that we are "unofficial". What the hell is going on in Huntington? What will the powers that be do if they go under, Florida goes under(only avg. 400 fans at 20 bucks a ticket)  , and the West? We might have a problem folks. |

I seiously doubt that it was the FAB's descion to break away, they loved it too much, made some of them feel big. LOL. :-P
As for Huntington, everything is good. Just some small things from the ownership change all happened in one day. btw, I like men.

Fla and all of the west basicly are expansion teams. They will have to build a fan base before they see significant numbers. People don't just show up all the sudden the teams have to play at home first and depend on word of mouth to get more people out.
How many seats is FLA's arena?
Cos take UT for instance their arena holds 2500 and right now they've had about 450- 500 fans at the games well realisticly for them to be successful they need about 1000 more people attending and thats it. a very makeable number if the off season is approached correctly.
Now take Columbus and they have about 2000- 2500 fans at a game and they need 2000-2500 more to be successful and again I feel it is a very makeable number cos the ownership is doing things right and attendance is up from last year (in comparison to the first game). also more season tickets have been sold this year so they have a fan base that is growing.
$20 a ticket! That has to be lower level pricing or something
